I love our tour lady, the best guide that i ever have in Europe, the most kind, knows a lot of the history, i enjoy every story that she told us. Was our best day in London!! The best tour ♥️!! Very complete, we learn a lot from the history that she told us.

Really well delivered the headsets talk you round the splendour of the palaces state rooms. A real honour when you think it is still the Royals home.

The guide we had on the walking tour portion was what made this excursion.. it's too bad they don't go thru the palace with you.. He was very informative, funny and gave us insight we wouldn't have had if we just booked tickets thru the palace site.. but people remember to tip your guide! Felt bad for him because we didn't see any other "group" on our tour tip him besides us...

From arriving and receiving the tickets the process was seamless and very well organised. The headsets were great and everyone moved at their own pace and could experience the rooms with ease. There was also a family option which meant the children were engaged looking for the items in the room and checking them off. I personally would have liked the option to learn about all of the paintings or objects which were limited to a few per room but I understand not everyone would enjoy that. The gardens were lovely and lots of options for ice cream or food at the end with a gift shop too. A super experience and would recommend

Having done a different walking tour previously, I had a certain expectation, this tour blew it out of the water!! We hit specific spots at specific times and had such good views!! It was fast paced in places but the guide was kind enough to make sure everyone in the group kept up at all points! Absolutely brilliant, and Brendan the guide was just fantastic, I couldn't recommend this tour highly enough, it was worth every penny!!

An enhanced royal experience
Upgrade your tickets for a small-group tour of the Changing of the Guards ceremony or go on a walking tour of Westminster. Accordinging to the ticket you choose, your experience starts with a walking tour which begins near Buckingham Palace itself, with a multilingual audioguide or where you will be met by your English-speaking guide who will help you get acquainted with the Royal neighborhood. Make your way past St. James Palace and follow this up with a lovely stroll through St James Park, which once held the Royal Zoo. You can then walk up the Mall, which resembles a red carpet leading up to the palace, and admire Clarence House. With the Changing of the Guards ticket, you can either watch the Foot Guards or the Horse Guards replace the Old Guards in a 45-min ceremonious event.
